Day 31
This morning I left Bahia Blanca and made my way to Coronel Pringles. It was a nice day with rolling hills. One of my spokes came loose somehow but it didn´t break so I stopped and fixed it with my spoke wrench. I am surprised at how well my bike is holding up considering what I am putting it through. I have only had 1 flat tire the whole trip. About 5 hours into the day I had to cross a small mountain range. It was a pretty gradual climb and was not too bad. One the way up I saw beautiful fields that were practially neon green. The way down was pretty gradual too so I was able to average a good speed for the last hour of the day.

Hey, Nick: Well, I have to tell you. I hate head winds and am not overly fond of side winds. The side winds are OK, just have to watch out when a vehicle passes you but those head winds are brutal and you've have so much head wind...I don't think I'll ever try to duplicate your route! Good job, buddy!
ReplyDeleteI can't help but chuckle at the Coronel Pringles name..I'm just picturing the weird mustache face of the Pringles chips dude. Sounds like you're having a blast! :)
